Thursday Roll Call

Good Morning Ilinois, Happy Thursday.  I hope that everyone is staying cool during our little heatwave.  What does everyone have planned for today.  I am plang on attending the plastics seminar that Chris mentioned earlier this week or last.    Best wishes to Christina on her journey to MD this evening. Everyone have a great Thursday, I am off to work. Mary

Good Morning Illinois!!!! I am just here at work this morning.  Not too much planned for the day besides work. I hope to be trying a new recipe tonight and will let you know how it works out. I am sending good wishes to Christina, Pam and all who need them.

Lucy.....any word on the job? Everyone have a lovely day!

Good Morning to all this nice warm morning.  Lets not complain about the heat, it will be snow and cold too soon for me.  The month of August is slow at work for me, so I am only working 2  days a week  until 9/1. I am going to try to play catchup at job 2 ( housework) in the next few weeks. Today, besides the usual pickup, I need to go Krogering, and run some other errands. Then need to firm up plans for the weekend. Then make dinner. Not sure what it will be yet. Have a good day, Lisa

Good morning!!  How is everyone today? My day is going to consist of putting my mom's hospital bed in place, and cleaning.  ewwwwwwwwww, can I get someone to do it for me?   Christina, please drive carefully.  That is an order. Well, I need to get off the computer and clean.  Day 2 of Illinois not having a budget, keep praying.  Governor says he is ready to go months without one... YIKES! Dee

GM all!  I hope you all don't mind me changing colors when I post everyday.  I like variety!  ha ha Today I get to go into work later, but that means staying later too.  It's okay its my bosses birthday and he deserves to leave early.  It's just him and me at the business anyway.  This morning I have to get more things out into the garage for the big garage sale this weekend and then I go to my PCP for my first visit for the 6 month diet.  Which I found out might even count as my second visit though since I was there last month and we talked about weightloss too.  We'll see.  Then it's off to wor****il 5pm.  My sister and niece are coming over to help with the sale and they will be spending the night, but I will try to get on here and update about my visit.   Have a wonderful day everyone! Chris, please be careful on your drive tonight

Hi Mary ... well, I'm working from my "virtual" office at Northwestern today (2nd floor lobby).  I had my DEXAscan this morning, and have another appointment here later this morning, but I still need to get work done!  My only problem working like this is I happen to be a people-watcher, and get distracted WAY too easily! Have a great Thursday (is it Thursday already?) Karyn

Good Morning Illinois! Well, I have had a busy week so far....  On Monday I had my psych eval, had to be in Peoria at 9:30 am.  Then I had a local support group meeting in Rockford that evening.  I worked on Tuesday, got called in on Wednesday, and am looking forward to my day off today!  Oh and did I mention that my sisters 3 youngest boys (2, 5, & 7yrs) are staying with my mom for 2 weeks?  (I live in the upstairs apartment from my parents and they babysit my son for me)  SO I have been spending most of my "spare" time helping her fix meals and clean faces, and break up fights!  Its been fun though.  With our busy schedules I never get to spend much time with my sister's family, so this HAS been enjoyable if a little hectic.   Oh and with my psych eval, I believe it is all a go.  I justhave to wait for final insurance approval to recieve my date.  People at my local support group say it only takes 2-3 weeks to get the OK and recieve a date.   Losers bench here I come!!!!! Take care Cindy

Where/when is the Rockford Support Group?  Can anyone go?

Good Morning Everyone - Thanks for the warm wishes for a safe trip..  I went to the library after work last night and picked up a bunch of books on tapes/cd's so I'm ready to roll.  I will drive safely Dee     I need some "me" time right now and I guess I'm going to get plenty of that in the car.  LOL   I will be back either late Saturday night or Sunday depending upon if I poop out and get a hotel room on Saturday.  I'll touch base when I get home. Talk to you all soon  Christina

Happy Thursday!! Today I have many things to do inside and outside of the house.   I do the homeless shelter on Friday nights.........I have to say my scale is moving again and I have lost 23 in 5 weeks!!  I guess that is slower than most but I am very happy Shannon
